continual_a rest_n nor_o yet_o in_o long_a tribulation_n do_v both_o these_o thing_n according_a to_o his_o heavenly_a wisdom_n for_o he_o suffer_v we_o not_o to_o enjoy_v continual_a ease_n lest_o we_o shall_v become_v more_o slothful_a and_o again_o he_o suffer_v we_o not_o to_o be_v in_o continual_a trouble_n lest_o we_o shall_v utterlie_o fall_v or_o despair_v therefore_o let_v we_o leave_v the_o time_n of_o release_n our_o grief_n unto_o he_o and_o let_v we_o only_o live_v in_o holiness_n for_o the_o work_n that_o we_o have_v to_o do_v be_v to_o be_v change_v unto_o virtue_n but_o it_o be_v the_o work_n of_o god_n to_o dissolve_v adversity_n for_o he_o have_v a_o more_o ready_a will_n to_o quench_v this_o burn_a flame_n than_o thou_o thyself_o have_v but_o he_o expect_v thy_o salvation_n therefore_o as_o tribulation_n come_v of_o ease_n so_o also_o it_o be_v expedient_a after_o trouble_v to_o look_v for_o ease_n and_o mitigation_n of_o our_o grief_n for_o neither_o be_v it_o always_o winter_n nor_o always_o summer_n nor_o always_o storm_n nor_o always_o calm_a weather_n nor_o always_o night_n nor_o always_o day_n so_o neither_o shall_v we_o always_o have_v tribulation_n but_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o mitigation_n if_o we_o always_o give_v thanks_n unto_o god_n in_o trouble_n 3_o dan._n 3_o for_o the_o three_o child_n be_v cast_v into_o the_o burn_a oven_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o they_o forget_v not_o to_o stand_v in_o their_o religion_n neither_o do_v the_o fire_n make_v they_o afraid_a but_o sit_v in_o the_o furnace_n as_o in_o a_o chamber_n and_o feel_v no_o grief_n be_v circumspect_o compass_v bout_n with_o fire_n they_o pour_v out_o those_o holy_a prayer_n which_o they_o make_v therefore_o the_o fire_n become_v unto_o they_o as_o a_o wall_n the_o flame_n a_o garment_n and_o the_o oven_n a_o fountane_n and_o the_o fire_n receive_v they_o bind_v make_v they_o loose_a it_o receive_v their_o body_n which_o be_v mortal_a and_o abstain_v from_o they_o as_o if_o they_o have_v be_v immortal_a the_o fire_n know_v not_o his_o own_o nature_n but_o show_v reverence_n unto_o godliness_n the_o tyrant_n bind_v their_o foot_n and_o their_o foot_n do_v overcome_v the_o force_n of_o the_o fire_n o_o wonderful_a thing_n the_o flame_n loose_v they_o that_o be_v bind_v and_o again_o the_o flame_n be_v overcome_v of_o they_o that_o be_v bind_v for_o the_o religion_n of_o the_o young_a man_n do_v change_v the_o nature_n of_o thing_n yea_o very_o it_o change_v not_o nature_n itself_o but_o that_o which_o be_v more_o wonderful_a it_o restrain_v the_o force_n of_o nature_n which_o be_v permanent_a and_o durable_a it_o quench_v not_o the_o fire_n but_o make_v it_o to_o be_v without_o force_n while_o it_o burn_v and_o that_o which_o be_v wonderful_a and_o may_v make_v we_o astonish_v this_o be_v not_o do_v only_o in_o their_o body_n which_o be_v holy_a but_o also_o in_o their_o garment_n 5.15.16_o act_n 9.11_o 12_o act._n 5.15.16_o and_o shoe_n and_o as_o in_o the_o apostle_n the_o raiment_n of_o paul_n do_v expel_v sickness_n and_o devil_n and_o the_o shadow_n of_o peter_n do_v drive_v away_o death_n so_o likewise_o here_o the_o shoe_n of_o the_o child_n quench_v the_o power_n of_o the_o fire_n i_o know_v not_o in_o what_o manner_n i_o shall_v declare_v it_o the_o miracle_n exceed_v all_o declaration_n that_o can_v be_v by_o word_n for_o the_o force_n of_o the_o fire_n be_v quench_v and_o it_o be_v not_o quench_v for_o when_o it_o be_v occupy_v about_o the_o body_n of_o those_o saint_n it_o be_v quench_v and_o when_o it_o shall_v break_v their_o bond_n in_o sunder_o it_o be_v not_o quench_v therefore_o it_o break_v their_o fetter_n and_o yet_o it_o touch_v not_o so_o much_o as_o their_o ankle_n thou_o see_v what_o a_o near_a connection_n there_o be_v neither_o be_v the_o fire_n change_v and_o deprive_v of_o his_o power_n neither_o dare_v it_o proceed_v to_o execute_v his_o power_n be_v keep_v as_o it_o be_v within_o bond_n the_o tyrant_n bind_v they_o and_o the_o flame_n loose_v they_o that_o thou_o may_v learn_v both_o what_o be_v the_o cruelty_n of_o that_o barbarous_a man_n and_o also_o the_o obedience_n of_o the_o element_n but_o for_o what_o cause_n do_v he_o bind_v they_o to_o cast_v they_o into_o the_o fire_n that_o the_o miracle_n may_v be_v the_o great_a that_o the_o sign_n may_v be_v the_o more_o wonderful_a that_o thou_o shall_v not_o think_v that_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v see_v be_v a_o deceyve_a of_o the_o eye_n for_o except_o that_o that_o fire_n have_v be_v fire_n it_o have_v not_o take_v away_o their_o bond_n and_o that_o which_o be_v a_o far_o great_a thing_n it_o have_v not_o devour_v those_o soldier_n which_o sit_v without_o but_o now_o the_o fire_n show_v his_o violence_n to_o those_o that_o be_v without_o and_o obedience_n to_o those_o who_o be_v within_o but_o consider_v thou_o with_o i_o in_o all_o respect_n how_o the_o devil_n by_o what_o thing_n he_o strive_v against_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n by_o the_o same_o thing_n he_o destroy_v his_o own_o power_n not_o willing_o indeed_o but_o the_o wisdom_n and_o providence_n of_o god_n use_v his_o own_o weapon_n and_o craft_n upon_o his_o own_o head_n which_o thing_n also_o here_o come_v to_o pass_v for_o the_o devil_n then_o insinuate_v himself_o into_o that_o tyrant_n do_v neither_o permit_v that_o the_o head_n of_o those_o saint_n shall_v be_v cut_v off_o with_o the_o sword_n nor_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v give_v unto_o beast_n nor_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v

which_o do_v now_o inhabit_v that_o country_n do_v worship_n the_o same_o with_o much_o honour_n god_n therefore_o will_v utter_o to_o root_v out_o this_o matter_n of_o ungodliness_n grant_v a_o
